estate in the Land and the Improvements and that it owns the Property free and

Encumbrances. The Permitted Encumbrances do not and will not materially
adversely affect or interfere with the value, or materially adversely affect or
interfere with the current use or operation, of the Property, or the security
intended to be provided by this Security Instrument or the ability of Borrower

interests in and to, and perfected collateral assignments of, all personalty

certain rights under the related Leases, subject only to a license granted to
Borrower to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the
lessor under such Leases, including the right to
7

Lender's interest therein. Borrower shall forever warrant, defend and preserve
the title and the validity and priority of the lien of this Security Instrument
and shall forever warrant and defend the same to Lender against the claims of
all persons whomsoever.

Borrower and Lender is solely that of debtor and creditor, and Lender has no
fiduciary or other special relationship with Borrower, and no term or condition

Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between

Property, Borrower will pay the tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if
any. If Lender is advised by counsel chosen by it that the payment of tax by

basis for a defense of usury, then Lender shall have the option, exercisable by
written notice of not less than
9
ninety (90) days to declare the Debt immediately due and payable without any
prepayment premium.
(b) Borrower will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or

penalties thereon, if any.

officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note
or any other Loan Document which is not of public record, and, in the case of

Documents, Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note or other

continue to rely on Borrower's ownership of the Property as a means of
maintaining the value of the Property as security for repayment of the Debt and
the performance of the Other Obligations. Borrower acknowledges that Lender has

of tenants under the Leases, Lender is authorized to enter upon the Property for
such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to
protect its interest in the Property or to foreclose this Security Instrument or
collect the Debt. The cost and expense of any cure hereunder (including

payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender in
remedying such Default or Event of Default shall bear interest at the Default
Rate for the period after notice from Lender that such cost or expense was

therefor.

defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Property and, after

Property.
Section 9.5 RECOVERY OF SUMS REQUIRED TO BE PAID. Lender shall have the
right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums which
constitute a part of the Debt as the same become due, without regard to whether
or not the balance of the Debt shall be due, and without prejudice to the right
of Lender thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure, or any other action, for
a Default or Defaults by Borrower existing at the time such earlier action was
commenced.
Section 9.6 OTHER RIGHTS, ETC. (a) The failure of Lender to insist upon
strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any
term of this Security Instrument. Borrower shall not be relieved of Borrower's
obligations hereunder by reason of (i) the failure of Lender to comply with any
request of Borrower to take any action to foreclose this Security Instrument or
otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof or of the Note or the other Loan
Documents, (ii) the release, regardless of consideration, of the whole or any
part of the Property, or of any person liable for the Debt or any portion
thereof, or (iii) any agreement or stipulation by Lender extending the time of
payment or otherwise modifying or supplementing
14
the terms of the Note, the Loan Agreement, this Security Instrument or the other
Loan Documents.
(b) It is agreed that the risk of loss or damage to the Property is on
Borrower, and Lender shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of
the Property, for failure to maintain the Policies, or for failure to determine
whether insurance in force is adequate as to the amount of risks insured.
Possession by Lender shall not be deemed an election of judicial relief, if any
such possession is requested or obtained, with respect to the Property or any
other Collateral not in Lender's possession.
(c) Lender may resort for the payment of the Debt to any other security
held by Lender in such order and manner as Lender, in its discretion, may elect.
Lender may take action to recover the Debt, or any portion thereof, or to
enforce any covenant hereof without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter
to foreclose this Security Instrument. The rights of Lender under this Security
Instrument shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given
effect to the exclusion of the others. No act of Lender shall be construed as an
election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other
provision. Lender shall not be limited exclusively to the rights and remedies
herein stated but shall be entitled to every right and remedy now or hereafter
afforded at law or in equity.
Section 9.7 RIGHT TO RELEASE ANY PORTION OF THE PROPERTY. Lender may
release any portion of the Property for such consideration as Lender may require
without, as to the remainder of the Property, in any way impairing or affecting
the lien or priority of this Security Instrument, or improving the position of
any subordinate lienholder with respect thereto, except to the extent that the
obligations hereunder shall have been reduced by the actual monetary
consideration, if any, received by Lender for such release, and may accept by
assignment, pledge or otherwise any other property in place thereof as Lender
may require without being accountable for so doing to any other lienholder. This
Security Instrument shall continue as a lien and security interest in the
remaining portion of the Property.
Section 9.8 VIOLATION OF LAWS. If the Property is not in compliance with
Legal Requirements, Lender may impose additional requirements upon Borrower in
connection herewith including, without limitation, monetary reserves or
financial equivalents.
Section 9.9 RIGHT OF ENTRY. Subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement,
Lender and its agents shall have the right to enter and inspect the Property at
all reasonable times.
Section 9.10 SUBROGATION. If any or all of the proceeds of the Note have
been used to extinguish, extend or renew any indebtedness heretofore existing
against the Property, then, to the extent of the funds so used, Lender shall be
subrogated to all of the rights, claims, liens, titles, and interests existing
against the Property heretofore held by, or in favor of, the holder of such
indebtedness and such former rights, claims, liens, titles, and interests, if
any, are not waived but rather are continued in full force and effect in favor
of Lender and are merged with the lien and security interest created herein as
cumulative security for the repayment of the Debt, and the performance and
discharge of the Obligations.
